At the Gate

Life is full of choices, and sometimes they are difficult. You know that happiness could lie before you, but you can't be sure. Just take the step, make the leap, and it'll bring you to where you're meant to be.

Once more I find myself here At the corner of Choice and Fate Wondering where the path goes next, The path beyond this Gate. Is it good? Is it bad? Will I be happy? Will I be sad? Sometimes all I need Is to just take that next step Onto the path beyond the Gate And be glad I lept.
